Message saying account disabled although account is ok. Is this a scam?

Received email saying account was disabled although this not true. Looked for credit card details cvv and sort code. Is this an attempted scam?

Yes. Apple will never ask for that information in an email.

Hi Grandmaz5,
If you are having issues connecting to Facebook on your iPad, and you have already troubleshot the Facebook app itself, you may want to check the built-in iOS settings for Facebook; you may find the following article helpful:

Hello Bdev15,
I would be concerned too if the songs I purchased from iTunes were not downloading to my iPhone. You have taken some great troubleshooting steps already, and thank you for providing the details of the steps you too. I have a few additional suggestions to get it downloaded to your iPhone.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted:
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.

If the songs still do not download, next I recommend downloading the songs when connected to another network. For example, if you are using the cellular network, you could switch to Wi-Fi, or you could try an alternate Wi-Fi network. Follow the steps in the section titled "iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch > Music" in the article below to download the songs:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

If you are still not able to download the songs, you can report an issue with these purchases using the steps in this article:

Error message saying "iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language"

When trying to launch iTunes I'm getting an error message saying "iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version"? Any suggestions are much appreciated and thank you in advance!

Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
Restart the PC first.
If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
Can you launch your iTunes now?

I cannot purchase final cut x. Message says please contact I-tunes support to complete this transaction.

I downloaded the free trial of Final Cut Pro X. It has expired, and I am trying to pay for the app now, but I keep getting a message saying "please contact I-tunes support to complete this transaction". Then another message comes up saying "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the app store, please try again later. (100)". Then in the backround, a new safari window pops up and is trying to connect to the i-tunes store, but never does.
I have no problem logging into I-tunes or the apple store with my user name and ID. I can download songs from I-tunes as well. Just not sure if this is a common problem or not

Hi Dan ...
I downloaded the free trial of Final Cut Pro X.
Delete the trial version then try purchasing the app.
You need to use a utility that will not only delete the app but all the associated files > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
If you still see the error 100 try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing

Windows right?
Likely your not the administor any more, the botnet is.
Check on this site really quick if your part of a botnet
http://botnetchecker.com/
All clear? Hopefully. Backup your files to a external drive, cd or dvd, USB keye etc off your computer.
Run the sfx file on this site and it will burn to a cd.
http://www.avira.com/en/support-download-avira-antivir-rescue-system
Next hit your BIO's key and set the cd to boot first, run the scanner and see what it pops up.
If your all clear then create another Admin, transfer your files over from the first Admin.
See if that works, eventually when your totally over to the new Admin, delete the old one.
If you can't create a new Admin, find out who locked your machine down, like your parents or it's a school computer?
Likely installed spyware or "nanyware" to watch you.
Hope that works.

My iPhoto doesn't even open! i get same message saying it's unreadable! anybody else have this problem!?

my iPhoto doesn't even open! i get same message saying it's unreadable! anybody else have this problem!?

First try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it doesn't then your current library is the culprit.
If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Follow the instructions here > iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

My daughter forgot her passcode on her new ipod touch. How do I access it? The message says ipod disabled. I've tried resetting by holding on/off and home but hasn't worked

My daughter forgot her passcode on her brand new ipod touch. How do I access it now? The message reads, "ipod disabled". I've tried holding the on/off button and home button until I see an apple. Then asks me to connect to itunes. When trying to connect to itunes, it will not let me as it asks for the ipod touch's passcode (which we do not have!) What next?

Did you use the instructions I provided in the document above? It can be a bit tricky getting the device into recovery mode. Try a few more times.
What happens if you try DFU mode?

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom
